Dragic going to Brooklyn feels much better than him heading to Milwaukee from the Heat’s perspective – 12:46 PM

Dragic has a real chance to boost his value as a 2022 free agent. I don’t think any other contender could’ve offered him such a high-usage role even if that role is only going to be available half of the time. – 12:43 PM

I’m VERY curious to see who the Nets waive to bring in Goran Dragic.
There is no easy cut to make. It’s either a rotation guy, semi-rotation guy or you take dead money on the books next year.
Remember: David Duke Jr. and Kessler Edwards don’t count, since they are Two-Way guys. – 12:40 PM

Goran Dragic should help a contender, but I’m not sure that contender should be the Nets. Unless it’s really just coverage for Kyrie. Otherwise, that team needs a big a lot more than they need another guard. – 10:46 AM

More on this storyline
Word is Dragic was determined to spend at least a week evaluating the teams chasing him the hardest (Milwaukee, Brooklyn, Chicago, Golden State and the LA Clippers) and one source close to the process described as him as “really open-minded” to the pitches he’s getting. The Bucks notably have a significant backcourt role to offer, on top of their proven championship stock, while the Nets have Coach Steve Nash, who mentored Dragic in Phoenix when the Slovenian broke into the NBA, entrenched as their lead recruiter. League sources say Nash registered key aspects of the Nets’ bid to Dragic on Friday as Brooklyn also maintains hope that Kyrie Irving will be more available for the stretch run if the vaccine mandate that has ruled him out of home games all season is finally lifted in New York City. -via marcstein.substack.com / February 20, 2022
Marc Stein: The Warriors are among the teams in the crowded mix for buyout market darling Goran Dragic, league sources say. Milwaukee, Chicago, Brooklyn and the Clippers are also vying for the former All-Star guard. More coming soon: marcstein.Substack.com -via Twitter @TheSteinLine / February 18, 2022
As Wojnarowski reported, the Bucks have been very aggressive in trying to sign Goran Dragić. “They need guard depth. There’s an opportunity for Goran Dragić to come in, play some meaningful minutes for the Bucks and certainly have a chance to have a run in the playoffs. … Dragic, I think, is closer to a decision but Milwaukee’s been aggressive and they can offer him, not just a chance at being a part of the defending champions, but a chance to play a pretty significant role and I think that’s really been their sell to him, Mike Budenholzer and Jon Horst, as they talk to him.” -via Behind The Buck Pass / February 18, 2022
